Well that took a bit of reading, as I guess it took awhile to compile. No real surprises to me.
But it was interesting. Don't think I will write mine down. On the bottom of my list would be Carlton. It is great having Fox footy so am watching another debacle!!
I suppose you would be the last one to get surprises from the list.
I clean forgot about AFL and Cricket.
Feel free to use the list idea Marcus, I stole it from elsewhere!
Number 10 is the flip side of number 9, wherin, I guess, it who's telling the story and what sort of mood they are in.
Speaking of my neglected mention of AFL in the list, commiserations on the result of the Brisbane/Geelong game tomorrow!
Carolyn likes your list too but she's a woos when it comes to computers!
Your son's a liar! I'm about to go to bed and didn't want to post a hurried and or insignificant comment. True intelligence always takes it's time!
A very worthy comment Carolyn, only to be expected of you.
Well, I learnt a few things there and confirmed a few suspicions also. Now I feel much better!
It was a magnificent effort to sound interesting but still with a tinge of 'boring'!!!
Actually, Peter, it is an admirable list - well done!!
Now let's do a Cocklebiddy by-pass?
I'm not sure you have earnt a Cocklebiddy bypass yet, keep trying.
At least on of your ex-wives agrees that the marriage was successful, if for no other reason that we produced four splendid children, of whom we can be justly proud, and then there are the grand and great grand children
Almost seems to make it worthwhile doesn't it?
I think your list is fabulous Peter and it is not kindergarteny at all! Now I want to go look at your 100 plus list!
Appears I am a bit slow in reading this list... oh well, what else is new.
